Chapter 127 The Evil Orb

Nie Yan sprinted forward, firing a spider silk from his left hand that stuck to a pillar ahead. With a mighty pull, he leaped out, landing seven or eight yards away from Filbruzze. He squeezed into any narrow space he could find, able to move nimbly where Filbruzze, being so large, was at a disadvantage, appearing especially cramped in the narrow passages.

Nie Yan used a Hate Dissolution Scroll, hoping to lower Filbruzze's aggro towards him.

Normally, the higher the aggro, the more relentlessly a monster would chase a player. When the aggro was lower, the monster would often hesitate or pause during the chase, making it easier to evade.

After Nie Yan used the Hate Dissolution Scroll, Filbruzze paused, but his hatred for Nie Yan wasn't so easily erased. Nie Yan had stolen an important item from him!

With the Evil Orb still in Nie Yan's hands, his aggro couldn't be eliminated!

Just as he was about to move, a spider web descended from the sky, trapping him inside.

Nie Yan's Intermediate Spider Web Scroll could only hold Filbruzze for about three seconds, its effect extremely limited. He could only take advantage of the time Filbruzze was trapped to escape.

His figure flashed through the corridor. At this point, he couldn't worry about much else. He activated Shadow Dance to accelerate, wanting to shake off Filbruzze's pursuit. Nie Yan's figure quickly disappeared into the shadows of the corridor.

Filbruzze swung his sword, cutting through the spider silk that enveloped him. He searched with his eyes, but Nie Yan was nowhere to be seen.

He roared in anger and began to walk towards the entrance.

Soon, Filbruzze summoned a group of Bloodshadow Warriors. The group gathered, sealing off the entrance, while another group of Bloodshadow Warriors entered the interior of the circular golden-domed building, searching for Nie Yan's踪迹.

Nie Yan smiled wryly when he saw the distant exit blocked. It seemed he was about to be caught in a jar.

Should he give up the Evil Orb?

Nie Yan was conflicted. If he gave up the Evil Orb, Filbruzze would take it back, and he didn't know where he would hide it next time. Nie Yan might never be able to get the Evil Orb again, which would mean that Nie Yan would never be able to obtain Holy Benediction and would be forever separated from the Saint Shadow Dancer.

Every top-tier class learns some skills from other classes to strengthen themselves. Of course, they only learn the basics, which can only occasionally assist in combat. Therefore, top-tier classes are divided into many titles. For example, in his past life, among the Shadow Dancers, there were several famous people, such as Saint Shadow Dancer Smile and Hunter Shadow Dancer Sun. Of course, those with such titles were extremely rare, a symbol of strength!

Obtaining the Evil Orb didn't mean Nie Yan could easily advance, but to advance to Saint Shadow Dancer, the Evil Orb was definitely a necessary condition. Without the Evil Orb, everything was just empty talk.

With the possibility of advancing to Saint Shadow Dancer, Nie Yan would never easily give up the Evil Orb!

Teams of Bloodshadow Warriors entered the building and began searching for Nie Yan's踪迹.

Nie Yan hid in a small storage room, finding a remote corner to wait out the storm.

Nie Yan estimated that these Bloodshadow Warriors would search for at least one or two hours before giving up. When they stopped searching, he would find an opportunity to slip out. This was the only way. Going out now was suicide.

Nie Yan waited patiently. Dense footsteps came from outside the storage room. Several Bloodshadow Warriors entered the storage room, rummaging through it. Nie Yan, relying on his small size after transforming into a gnome, used a few old tables and chairs as cover to avoid the search of these Bloodshadow Warriors.

The Bloodshadow Warriors didn't find anything and turned to leave.

Time passed little by little. After about half an hour, Nie Yan's Transform Gnome skill began to expire, but at this time, there were obviously fewer Bloodshadow Warriors searching. Even without the Transform Gnome skill, it was fine.

He waited patiently for more than an hour before daring to come out of the storage room.

Nie Yan cautiously sneaked towards the entrance. There were still more than twenty Bloodshadow Warriors guarding the entrance. As for Filbruzze, he didn't know where he had gone.

What an opportunity!

As long as Filbruzze wasn't there, Nie Yan was more than capable of dealing with this group of ordinary Bloodshadow Warriors.

Nie Yan slowly approached the Bloodshadow Warriors. When he was about twenty yards away from them, he hid in a corner and shook out a High-level Entangling Vines Scroll, beginning to chant the skill on the scroll. A burst of intense magical fluctuations startled the Bloodshadow Warriors. They sensed something and finally discovered Nie Yan's location, charging towards him.

Just as these Bloodshadow Warriors were about to approach Nie Yan, Nie Yan finished chanting the High-level Entangling Vines. Thick vines grew out of the ground, all condensed from magical elements, like pythons, firmly binding the Bloodshadow Warriors.

The Bloodshadow Warriors struggled constantly, but they couldn't break free from the restraints of the vines.

After casting the High-level Entangling Vines, Nie Yan accelerated with Haste and ran wildly out of the building, his figure flashing through the gaps between several Bloodshadow Warriors.

He had to take advantage of the Entangling Vines' duration to run out as quickly as possible!

The High-level Entangling Vines lasted for three or four seconds before slowly dissipating, freeing the group of Bloodshadow Warriors.

They wanted to intercept Nie Yan, but they found that Nie Yan had already rushed out of the entrance.

Nie Yan used an Acceleration Scroll and ran wildly forward. Sometimes, a second could determine life and death!

The plaza outside was also filled with a large group of Bloodshadow Warriors. They spotted Nie Yan and swarmed towards him.

Nie Yan used the techniques of Shadow Dance, dodging the Bloodshadow Warriors one by one. His speed was at its peak. Sometimes, he couldn't avoid the greatswords coming head-on and had to take a few hits, his health dropping sharply. He quickly used Instant Recovery Potions and bandages on himself.

Nie Yan quickly flashed through the slightly sparse areas of the crowd and broke out of their encirclement.

At this moment, Filbruzze appeared in the distance, rushing towards him like a ferocious beast.

Seeing Filbruzze's tall figure, Nie Yan couldn't help but feel frightened. He immediately used the Polymorph skill, turning into a bobcat, lightly leaping onto the surrounding tents, jumping quickly between the tents, quickly pulling a great distance away from Filbruzze.

At this moment, outside the circular golden-domed building in the distance, seven Frost Ironclad Trebuchets fired volleys of frost-covered iron projectiles towards Nie Yan's location. These projectiles poured down like a dense rainstorm.

The iron projectiles fired by the Frost Trebuchets had a freezing effect. Anyone within twenty yards of the projectiles would be frozen into ice by the intense cold.

Nie Yan quickly used the Divine Blessing skill on the Ten Saint Paladin Badge, granting magic immunity. The dense frost covered him, but melted away upon contact.

Nie Yan, using the bobcat's agility, quickly dodged the attacks of the projectiles. He watched as the tents were instantly smashed into pieces under the bombardment of the projectiles, a scene of utter destruction.

After a wave of projectile attacks, the surrounding area was a mess. Nie Yan quickly disappeared from the sight of the Bloodshadow Warriors.

Running more than a thousand yards away, Nie Yan looked back and saw that no Bloodshadow Warriors were chasing him. He was out of the attack range of the Frost Ironclad Trebuchets, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Finding a safe place, Nie Yan summoned Faulkner's Warhorse. After mounting the warhorse, he fled quickly, galloping back to Calore, passing through maps with levels in the seventies and eighties.

Just as Nie Yan was running back to Calore, he suddenly received a system message.

System: Player Wang Zhe Tian Xia has obtained the Chapter of Trust, coordinates 293.285.958.

In addition to Shadow of Darkness, Nie Yan had the Chapters of Peace, Benevolence, Knowledge, and Tolerance. If he could obtain the Chapters of Loyalty and Trust, he could collect the fifth volume of the Book of Order, an item as powerful as Shadow of Darkness!

Another person had obtained a chapter of the Book of Order, the Chapter of Trust! Seeing the name Wang Zhe Tian Xia, Nie Yan was slightly stunned. It was him.

According to the system broadcast's location, Wang Zhe Tian Xia was nearby, no more than three thousand yards away. Nie Yan didn't dare to be careless. Wang Zhe Tian Xia knew he had four chapters of the Book of Order and was nearby, so he might come over.

In his past life, Wang Zhe Tian Xia's strength was no less than Sun's and Shadow Killer's. If he hadn't suddenly disappeared, it would have been hard to say how the ranking of thieves in Calore would have turned out.

Nie Yan's name was a deterrent. He was the president of Niu Ren Tribe and had an extraordinary status in Calore. However, for people like Nie Yan and Wang Zhe Tian Xia, they wouldn't be intimidated by these superficial names and positions. If Nie Yan were Wang Zhe Tian Xia, even if he knew his opponent was the president of the number one guild, he would attack without hesitation.

As a top-tier thief, he must learn to despise these irrelevant things.

About two to three thousand yards south of Nie Yan, Wang Zhe Tian Xia glanced at the system notification and was also a little surprised. He had just obtained the Chapter of Trust when he received a system prompt about Nie Yan's coordinates. He didn't expect that four chapters of the fifth volume of the Book of Order were in Nie Yan's hands. He revealed a meaningful smile. Crazy Mage Nie Yan, an interesting fellow. He really wanted to meet Nie Yan. He wanted to see what the strength of this guy who could stir up wind and rain in Calore was really like, and whether he was just famous for nothing.

He didn't value fame, but he was also eager to meet experts. Because of the Book of Order, he and Nie Yan were destined to have a showdown sooner or later.
